✏️ Grab a pen and notebook (if you’re into that 😉 and let me walk you through my Tarot reading process. THIS is how I read a Tarot card with my intuition…
And if this lesson knocks your socks off, then you are going to LOVE my upcoming course The Daily Tarot Girl’s Guide to Intuitive Tarot Reading (Doors close on April 14th, get in while you still can!!!)
There are two ways to read a Tarot card – you can read with your HEAD(mind/intellect) or your HEART(intuition).
Reading with the MIND involves analyzing a card and breaking it down into parts, while reading with your INTUITION is all about experiencing the card, merging with it and feeling into it.
Most of us are well versed in reading with our mind, so let’s start there! Look at a card in front of you (either the one I show in this video or one you draw yourself) and notice:
- What’s the NAME of the card?
- What KEYWORDS do you associate with it?
- What SUIT is it from?
- What NUMBER is on the card?
- What SYMBOLS are on the card?
Now that you’ve gathered all that info, let’s shift into intuitive reading mode…
Step 1 – Relax! Take a breath and chill. This will help you hear your intuitive voice better.
Step 2 – notice what comes up. Any feelings or emotions? Any urges? Just notice.
Step 3 – feel into the card. How does this card feel to you? Sad? Joyful? Cold? Busy? Use your 5 senses of touch, taste, smell, sight and hearing to really feel out this card – what do you notice?
Step 4 – What are you drawn to? Follow it. It might be a symbol, a colour, a person. What do you notice about it? What is it trying to tell you?
Step 5 – let the card SPEAK to you! Ask the card (or a figure or symbol on the card) what it wants to tell you and then sit back and wait.
Personally, I LOVE to read with BOTH my mind and intuition, so this isn’t an either/or thing. You might find that you read mostly with your mind and only 10% intuition and that’s fine! It will vary from reading to reading, too. Sometimes my intuition is on FIRE and so I’ll mostly just read intuitively, while some days it just simply is NOT on fire, LOL! That’s when it’s nice to have some solid Tarot knowledge about meanings and keywords to fall back on.
I hope you find this Intuitive Tarot Reading crash course helpful in your Tarot studies 💕
